Subject: "Big O" notation for postgres?
Date: Wed, 21 May 2008 10:10:53 -0400
Message-ID: <48342D6D.1020506@reedyriver.com> (raw)

Does anyone know if there is a source that provides "Big O" notation for 
postgres's aggregate functions and operations?  For example is count(*) 
= O(1) or O(n)?

Do the developers for postgres use Big O when selecting algorithms? If 
so, is the info easily available?

Thanks,
HH
